This morning when I was driving to my summer highschool thats like 30mins drive, on the way I saw a new blue prelude that looked stock and was driving pretty fast down an open road it was a stick saw him rev the car up a bit starting and slowly shifting, I decided to follow and we both turned right on the same open street so we both floor it from 20 to 80 something till the end of my second, he was a car length in front of me when we started, then @ like 40 to 65 he gained maybe half a foot on me, then after that he didn't gain any distance and at like around 70 to 78 I got 1/4 foot back, but still lost, oh well at least I can hang with one then we both cruised @ 80 and I had to turn left. Second race was stupid, I was almost late for lunch break @ summer school (6 lates and u get kick out) so I floored it from 20 to 60 and a GTP with 4 people in it beside me saw me and did hte same and he blew liek 4 cars length on me by 60 and there was the school, but I found a space quicker then he did and beat him going in to school and made it on time LOL. Then at the end of the day going home saw a kid in geo metro rev @ me with his super loud rap music that was shaking my car, it was on 0 to 55 and I totally distoryed that guy dont even know how many cars I put on him... oh well at least I hung with a stock prelude and killed a geo metro today

Come on man! Take it like a man. I don't think you lost the races though. To truly know it you can smoke someone is to do it froma standing start. My cousin was talkin just about his Taurus 24V. Got him from a standing start and killed him. From the start, I pulled 2 car lengths on him. When we got up to 80 I couldn't pull anymore.

My Street Racing Record: 3-7

Just so you dont feel bad about losing I can tell you that my street racing record is 3-7. I've lost to an Impala SS, Chrysler 300m, a CLK430, a Caddy STS, and two Maximas. But to make myself feel better I did beat up two civics and an altima. My car has no performance mods on it so I feel pretty good about it. Im more into looking pretty and sounding pretty. plus im broke

I can probably get the jump on the prelude if we started 10 to 80, I also responsed like 1/2 second later + my automagic gotta kick down a gear... I can't launch because my stock goodyears eagle GA are f~~~~ed with 33000km on them, I cna turn a corner with 3/4 wheel turn and the tires will sound like I'm powersliding is this normal?? how can they wear so fast not like they're performence tires, maybe it was my driving style?? I really need a new set of tires anyone want to give me some 15s?

the worst part is I've lost like 5 races in hte maxima, won maybe like 8, but when I drive my dad's 2000 honda odyssey minivan the record is like 10 to 0 , I can beat civics, base integra,safari,montana,sentra XE,and a couple,xterra, old PF and some others... I can't beleive the van is more of a sleeper then my maxima
